Creatine Edge is an effervescent that is quickly absorbed into the bloodstream from the small intestine. (Other creatine supplements enter the stomach as solids, resulting in intestinal and stomach discomfort, limited absorption and excretion of about 65% of the creatine as a waste product.)
Creatine is carried in the bloodstream to the skeletal muscles. Muscles use a substance called ATP for the energy to contract. Continued exertion causes muscle fatigue as ATP breaks down into ADP.
In the muscles, creatine refuels exhausted muscles by helping to convert ADP back to ATP. Large reserves of phosphocreatine delay muscle fatigue and speed muscle recovery.
Large Creatine reserves delay muscle fatigue and speed muscle recovery. In addition, muscle cells hold more water, causing muscles to grow in size as well as strength. Some studies show a decrease in body fat in athletes who use creatine.
